What about a piece of neutron star in those dimensions? Would it still be lighter than 70 lbs?

Good news, after obtaining a piece of neutron star in those dimensions, you wouldn't need to worry about it anymore.

The common popsci factoid tells us that a teaspoon of a neutron star weights as much as Mount Everest, so maybe.
